Charles Kanjama: It is a groundbreaking ruling because it is breaking new ground. It is a ruling that, in my view, takes the country a bit backwards on issues of public participation. Personally, I am a bit disappointed on that issue, and I feel that on some of the...

VIDEO Democratic Front (DF) president Mathias Mpuuga on #TheGrindPodcast with Patrick Kamara 933 KFM: 1. "...I am an active politician, I have moved in every inch and space of this country. I know where his [General Yoweri Museveni support is, it is not 71% it is not even 50%, and he knows it too." 2. "I am on record before and after the elections for having spoken out. I went out of my way and wrote to every political party in the opposition, warning and inviting them for a commonality of purpose...Immediately after the elections, I held a press conference spoke about the same issues, I had warned colleagues about that we never cared about and they happened. So, I feel that I am vindicated to the fact that I raised the alarm. Those who didn’t care, there is no much I could do to drag them." 3. "Also I could have raised the challenge about that election in the supreme court, but I was not a presidential candidate and I did not have permission to raise the same on behalf of any candidate. Remember that in one of the amendments that I had intended in the presidential elections act probably out of ignorance or excitement, was to amend the law to the fact that a citizen can challenge the election in a supreme court as long as that citizen is a voter and there is a proof that his challenge is not a waste of court’s time. I had intended that when that happens when presidential candidates are either compromised or timid, a courageous citizen can challenge that election. That didn’t happen, and the opportunity was lost." 4. "What have I done as DF? The DF is is going to challenge particular actions leading to that election and our petition to the Constitutional court is ready, if you want to know how we have moved and that we are not sleeping as the DF." #RealChangeActNow

BREAKING: ENOCH BURKE SAYS APPEAL OF HIS DISMISSAL SHOULD NOT PROCEED THIS SATURDAY Teacher Enoch Burke's appeal of his dismissal from Wilson's Hospital School is due to be heard by the Department of Education this Saturday, 13 December. Enoch Burke will speak in court tomorrow. He will argue that the Supreme Court must address the issue of conflicting Court of Appeal judgments in his case before the Department of Education hears his appeal. It is imperative in the interests of justice that this issue be resolved. A three-member division of the Court of Appeal today granted an order that Enoch Burke appear in person before them tomorrow at 2:30pm to apply that this hearing be postponed. There are conflicting judgments of the Court of Appeal regarding the critical question of why Enoch Burke was disciplined by Wilson's Hospital School. This is an extremely serious matter as the school’s Board of Management is relying heavily on a flawed judgment for Saturday's hearing. The Department of Education hearing should not proceed while this matter is unresolved. One judgment from 2023, written by Mr Justice John Edwards, contains the extraordinarily false assertion that "there is no evidence whatever" that Enoch Burke's suspension was because of his views on transgenderism or his refusal to comply with the principal's instruction to call a child "they". Mr Justice Edwards, on foot of this, stated that the constitutional rights to freedom of religion and freedom of conscience are "not engaged" i.e. not relevant to Enoch Burke's case. As stated previously, the Board of Management of Wilson’s Hospital School are relying heavily on this flawed judgment for Saturday's hearing. In a later Court of Appeal judgment in 2025, Ms Justice Mary Faherty ruled, on the contrary, that the principal's instruction is "a kernel" of the disciplinary proceedings against Enoch Burke. She stated: "In my view, any reasonable reader of the principal’s report would understand that the principal considered her overarching complaint against the appellant to fall under the heading of refusal to comply with a legitimate instruction resulting in serious consequences, as provided for in the Circular". Notwithstanding this, the second Court of Appeal did not correct the errors of the first Court of Appeal and was unwilling to state that the findings of Mr Justice John Edwards are wrong. Enoch Burke has appealed this issue to the Supreme Court. The Department of Education hearing should not proceed until the Supreme Court hears this case and makes its ruling. Justice must be done.

Is the Supreme Court ruling on the impeachment of Sara Zimmerman Duterte based on erroneous facts? I was there! I didn’t miss the chance to witness history — I can say for a fact that the ruling of the Supreme Court was based on erroneous facts and anyone can check it via the Livestream of the House of Representatives that day. February 5, 2025. One of the things which concerns me here is the additional requirement that came out of nowhere— not in the 1987 Constitution and not even in the existing ruling of the Supreme Court. Speaker Martin Romualdez in an interview yesterday said that the House of Representatives followed the existing precedent also from the Supreme Court — the Francisco and Gutierrez ruling. How can the House follow something that doesn’t exist during that time? Please make sense. Atty. Princess Abante released an explainer video explaining the factual truth about what transpired in the House of Representatives on February 5. Aside from the House Journal and official reports, the public can easily check the livestream of the House of Representatives. I don’t care if the Supreme Court ruling was written by an Aquino appointee because it doesn’t make sense to me at all! Please take time to watch the video — Atty. Abante was able to explain the side of the House of Representatives. Also, why would the Supreme Court put more weight to a news article versus an official journal and actually videos? Now, please tell me… How can we just trust the decision of the Supreme Court?

STATEMENT FROM THE LABOUR PARTY Abure rejects Appeal Court decision, Heads to Supreme Court Excerpt of his statement. We have seen what transpired today at the Appeal Court and we want to say very clearly that the judgement is not acceptable to all of us in the Labour Party led by my humble self. I want to say very clearly that the judgement is against all known principles of law. The courts, the Supreme Courts and all courts in Nigeria have stated very clearly that the issues of leadership of a political party is an internal affairs of a political party. It is also not true and I disagree when people say that the tenure of this executive has expired. That is untrue and very unacceptable to us. Nigerians will recall that on the 27th of March 2024, we had a valid convention that was held in Nnewi and that convention is still valid and subsisting for 4 years. I want to say that the court today didn't look at that before arriving at the conclusion that the tenure has expired. I must also say clearly that the Umuahia meeting which produced the Caretaker Committee was also against the Labour Party constitution. It is only the National Chairman and National Secretary of a Political Party who has the power to convene any NEC meeting of any of sort. I want to say very clearly that we are going to appeal that decision. Today's decision of the Appeal Court is not acceptable to us and we reject it in its entirety. We have put our legal team together and we are going to file an appeal and move to the Supreme Court. Thank you and God bless you. Sign: Barrister Julius Abure National Chairman Labour Party. 21/04/2026
